"Ceci n'est pas sémantic"
Frank van Harmelen is alluding to the famous Réné Magritte painting "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" pointing out the the knowledge graphs we are using frequently don't carry any semantics at all, but are only "nicely" structured graphs.

Great conversation today on with (who's not on Mastodon tsk tsk). I was hoping to ship something this summer but looks unlikely. We discussed a lot of and will matter a lot to inform those agents.

"Information [...] emerges from objective, autaxys-generated distinctions (#patterns of difference) that acquire relational significance and ultimately semantic content through their participation in complex, interacting autaxic systems."

The #Fediverse so loves #semantics

which is something that bores me to death because even after the briefest consideration, it is clear rigid definitions rarely work.

There's probably some very interesting discussions there, about how humans think, and how humans define, but it isn't in the question:

How do we define this object?
